Yesterday afternoon two young ladies,
accompanied by couple OF gentlemen,
went out fishing on the Severn river. They
tied their boat 10 the county bridge and
fished for some time. but meeting with
little success. rowed out further to the
draw, or shell frames, on the upper side
of the bridge, where several gentlemen
were fishing, and made fast their batfeau.
The two young men got out on the shells
to arrange their fishing tackle, leaving the
ladies in the boat; while there alone, one
of them stood up, causing the boat TO
careen precipitating her into the water.
As she went overheard the other lady
seized her by the sleeve and dress, and
began screaming for held. All the men
present rushed TO the rescue and she was
pulled into the boat. We believe had il
not been for the timely aid and presence
of mind displayed by her lady friend,
who caught hold of her companions
clothing, she would, in all probability,
have drowned before assistance reached
her After the lady had been safely got
ten into the boat they started for home,
the lady's clothing thoroughly saturated,
and all hands terribly frightened, but
thankful for the narrow escape from
drowning of their friend. Be careful,
ladies, while out on fishing expeditions.

Prospects of Gas Competition.

1t is rumored that one of the gas CON-
panies of Baltimore is discussing the
propriety of running a gas main from
Baltimore here. If they can secure the
furnishing of the State and county de-
partments as staIt, it is said they win take
their chances of getting enough private
families to make the thing a paying in
vestment. This, it is said, is cheaper than
putting up new works The cost of run
ming the pipes is estimated at $1,000 a
mile, and If the right Of way does not cost
too much the estimated cost of the whole
undertaking of gas retort and all will not
be over 500. 900 ut the outside. The price
OF gas IN Baltimore is so cents thousand
feet. We could not expect to get ii so low
here, but as competition is the life Of trade
and the price would be lower.

His manners were, however, irreproscb-
able. His French was the purest. land the
bellies thought him just too sweet for
anything.
I The fight between the free traders
and the pfotectionists will be con inued
this winter, and Representative Morrison
viii probably keep up his war On Ran
dali, though he is not a member Of the
House. He will be here as Interstate
commerce commissioner, and will be al
most as Influential as he was while in
Congress. Morrison's forte is il his
private conversation, and the power he
has in influencing men bY 1t. he has
never been q speaker, and he is as i'll at
ease on the floor Of the House as s school
boy making his fret speech. Randall,
while willing to accept 3 generous COM
promise on the reduction Of the tariff, is
not by any means willing to allow the
party to scommit Itself TO 8 free trade
platform, and the President is, under
stand, adverse to doing this.
saw Morrison and Randall together
the other day, and Wss struck by the
contrast between them. They are as
different in their character as the poles.
Randall makes one think Of g pugilist.
He has an iron jaw, and his eye is such
that it bears down all before it. He
strikes straight from the shoulder, and,
though he has diplomatic cunning
about him, his appearance would lead
you to think that he succeeded by sheer
push. He has kept his position for
years as one Of the leaders Of the Demo-
cratic party in the House, and his
trouble with Morrison began years ago
when Kerr YVES elucted Speaker over
Randall. It was Morrison's influence
that secured Randall's defeat, and RAJ
dali said at the time that be would be
even with Morrison before many years
had passed. Another Congress came
round, and Randall was again candidate
for Speaker. Morrison WAS agsin opposed
10 him, bul Randall succeeded, and MOrri-
son was put at the tail of the ways and
means committee, instead Of the head |.
Randall was reelected to the next Con.
gress, aud Morrison, with the iron in his
soul, grinned and bore the degradation to
which he was submitted. When the
Forty-seventh Congress came in, the Re-
publicans had the msjority, and Keifer
was the Speaker, but at the Forty-elghth
the majority was Democratic. Morrison
had worked aud schemed for this. He
had done favors in secret, and laid his
plans. He threw his strength to Carlisle,
and defeated Randall, ana then, to iu ther
take sway Rand ll's poWsr, he had the
appropriations divided among the differ
ent committees of the House. And so
time went on.
Then comes the last Congressional
election, and Morrison is defeated by the
still-hunt Of the protectionists. He
doubts not, suppose. that r lndau aided
in his defeat, and he will hardly feel
kindly towards him during the coming
session.
Morrison is 8 diplomat, and he has q
hearty shake Of the hand, snd & friendly
eye Tor every one. He cen tell good
stories, and he is one Of the social lights
Of the lobby of the hotel in which he
bosrds and where he often gossips of az

Curious Statistics Gathered by an Eating
House Fiend.


Philadelphia News.
The MONDAY customers were dropping
out one by one from O SAMSON street
restaurant, when q dyspeptic looking man
who sat at the next table startled me by
saying: "Have you any idea how many
miles mans jaw will travel in the course
of his life, assuming that he lives to be
seventy years of ege?"..
"Well, never thought of it, Unanswered
young man, who had halted in his wild
career of beefsteak. The dVspeptic man
changed his seat and exposed q much
soiled piece OF paper with some figures on
it, which he proceeded to explain:
"For the first ten years 8 child's law
will so about fifty-fve inches daily or
200, $50 inches altogether in q decade.
From his 10th to his Goth year what with
chewing gum, food and tobacco, he will
work his Jaw for, say, foar hours 8 day
st an average of one-half of an inch per
minute; that would make in a day 120
inches, or in ten years 43S, 900 inches.
During this time he will talk about FIVE
hours day, traversing about three
fourths of an inch minute with his Jaw;
that would give him in ten years 822, 250
inches to be added to our former figures
"For the next forty five years he will
spend sixty minutes day in eating, when
he will open his mouth one-half an inch
a minute and seven hours in talking, when
he will average five-eighths of an inch !:
that is, when you figure it out 5,00S, 625
inches.
"We now have our man sixty five years
old. For the last five years his Jaw takes
g rest. He will eat no more than thirty
miDnes day st one-half inch minute,
or 27,345 inches, and in talking the dis
lance travelled Will not amount to more
than 33S 500 inches. Now for the total.
II we add the Various sums together we
get $685., 40 inches, and dividing by
SO, 1850, the number of inches in mile,
you find that the meXtllary journey is q
distance of 10Y miles and fraction"
